HELP US STAY AFLOAT!
Currently we only have 6 kids registered in Group A. 19 kids registered in Group B. These are dangerous numbers for our cast size. Not only does this inhibit our ability to appropriately cast our show, but it also means it will become increasingly difficult to pay production costs.
If our cast size does not see a significant increase in cast members from K - 6, we will have to consider combining them together in one rehearsal period.
Due to Orange County School Districts policy of not allowing our fliers to be distributed to individual schools, we ask YOU for your help in spreading the word about our/your program to other kids who may benefit from this time tested, wonderful program.
Let's invite some friends, families and local kids to join us...increase our Group A and Group B numbers and build a stronger program for future productions...and memories.

SAVE THE PROGRAM! INVITE GROUP A & B AGE KIDS TO JOIN THIS PRODUCTION!
Don't keep TESOCAL a secret! The BEST way to SUPPORT TESOCAL is by bringing in new friends to join the program! Plus, it will make your summer production much more fun by performing with friends and watching TESOCAL grow...
We still have room to accept more registrations, so why not give the GIFT of musical theatre education and performance, and invite a friend (or family member) to participate in the cast as well! |

REHEARSAL TIPS AND ADVICE
 The most successful productions are the ones that have the most successful rehearsals! You know the old saying..."Practice makes Perfect!" Well here is a list of things you can do to get the MOST out of your rehearsal experience!
- ARRIVE EARLY - Plan on arriving to rehearsal at least 10 minutes before your groups start time. This will allow for you to check in at the front table and take care of any program needs you may have such as costuming, ticket ordering or generic questions you may need answered.
- DRESS FOR SUCCESS - We request that everyone dresses in comfortable clothing fit for physical activity. This is NOT a fashion show! So wear clothes that cover you well and are stretchable! No dresses, skirts, or clothing not condusive to rolling around on the floor! Also, in regards to footwear...NO OPEN TOED SHOES of any kind! Make sure to wear comfortable shows that cover your toes and ankles.
- BATTERY OPERATED TAPE RECORDER - during rehearsals we allow cast members to record their vocal warm-ups and music being taught for rehearsal throughout the week. Please provide your cast member with a battery operated tape recorder that is CLEARLY LABELED with your child's name on it.
- WATER AND SUPPLIES - we encourage everyone to bring a bottle of water with them to each rehearsal. Only plastic containers and only water! No outside food or beverages will be allowed into rehearsal. And make sure to bring your script and any other items you may need during rehearsal, such as a pencil, highlighting pen and extra paper to take notes.
- MAKE FRIENDS - plan on missing a rehearsal? Make a friend and meet with them prior to coming back to rehearsal and get filled in on what you missed! This way you can get caught up and not feel left behind!
- PRACTICE - just because we rehearse once a week, does not mean that is all you need to become successful. We encourage all cast members to rehearse periodically throughout the week to review what has already been taught so each week we can move FORWARD with new production elements.
